Mobility EDC Pack: DIY Guide

/// Mobility EDC Pack: DIY Guide

This is the instructional do-it-yourself guide and parts list on building a near replica or your own version of my now retired “mobility EDC pack“.

This “mobility pack” is the answer to needing to carry additional gear that won’t fit in my clothing pockets but not enough gear to warrant a daypack.
-John Cain

I made this mini go-bag from spare parts and by cannibalizing from gear I already had as part of my packing list on a whim in a hotel room.

It took me a while through trial and error to get it just right, combining seemingly unfitting parts together to make something useful as a whole. The entire kit is irreversible as there was no sewing or permanent changes made to each part with one exception.

So with more time, better materials, tools and experimenting, you should be able to make something far better and customized to suit your exact needs. This is just how I did it with what I had at the time.

It’s important to understand that you don’t have to lock yourself into these specific items, it’s just the ones that I happen to have when I constructed this.
